Main

Trevor Nishida

I am currently an undergraduate student at the University of Hawaii at Hilo majoring in Marine Science with an interest in coral morphological plasticity and the coral microbiome. I also have an interest in data science tools and artificial intelligence. My largest project to date was the creation of a prototype data dashboard for Hawaii County and I am obsessed with learning about novel tools being created for the programming language R.
